Call me uninformed, but I do not see a way forward where a statistical model trained to recognise relationships between words or groups of words, and has a front end coded to query that model could suddenly develop its own independence. Tha

Impossible in a single step, but perhaps impossible is too strong a word to reject the possibilities that arise when we consider how the statistics of words, or sounds are connected. If you can work out the statistical correlation between g

Thank you for the service that you and the rest of the team provide. I've found it to be excellent, and you're one of only a very slim number of transparent VPN providers who seem to be in it for the right reasons.

This was good fun. Well done

There could also be switching gear, signage, etc internal to the tunnel they had to deal with - if the claim is even valid in terms of this being the spurce of restriction on booster size.

From that exchange, clearly not. They do not have their stuff together. This is one area where AMD really should be employing quite a full team to ensure that major projects, including drivers, are able to support AMD cards without any fric

Its very unfortunate. One of our vendors has spent a hell of an effort making spatial analysis tools work via OpenCL instead of being just processor bound, and its made those industry standard libraries 1-2 orders of magnitude faster. That

This is a big part of why they are generally available. Building on top of AMD gear is currently more difficult than Nvidia. It's unfortunate, but the evolution of/from Cuda when AMD had little in this space gave intel a massive j

What an awesome thread with these three catching up. I love it! 90s gaming and hacking things together (or apart) was absolutely what got me into programming, too.

Butter? Oh, no no no. I'm definitely a fan of just Vegemite, spread thick, and toast. Adding butter is just diluting the pure goodness of the product, adulteration it with a moderating flavour and texture if you will. Also, Vegemite an

I disagree with this: those who have come through an engineering pathway can be brought up to understand business. Those who have come through business tend to only see engineering as a bunch of propeller hats.

Sounds crap. Also, what hiring manager is letting HR decide in what order their candidate pool is meritorious? HR can barely judge a local talent contest let alone someone's ability to undertake skilled work. If I say to my HR that a c

Skilled immigration policy very typically targets skills shortages where they cannot be recruited domestically. Simply firing a workforce to get those same skills cheaper, which is what is happening here, is a terrible move for a countries

This is also what annoys me about the discourse saying that MBAs ruined the company. As an individual with a science undergrad, engineering postgraduate, and soon to be MBA, any decent MBA program teaches you how to assess things like value

The zip code issue is not unique, and nor are the post codes broken. Postal codes are for mail routing. They get your mail to the correct mail centre for sorting and distribution. There is no need for the postal codes or mail centres to ali

It would take us a great deal longer to go via the US from our western pacific location. There are quite a few options from Asia to Europe which do not go through the middle east.

45 day holdover when tour neighbour has 3 days? Holey moley. That's got to make it hard to be competitive.

This is the point. I k ow plenty of travelling women and families who will take other routes because the area is associated with such a poor view (read: personal risk or inconvenience) for women. I'm not US based and on our way to Euro

Oh, this isn't good. It was one of the better options available, and the only one of those which was FOSS.

Probably because the article wasn't about comparing to SQL, or any other database, but rather looked at the R vs Python debate specifically?

This is a fantastic effort by the workers. - Ubisoft announced better than expected profits year on year. - Works pay indexation has been at lower than CPI year on year. - The company is asking for more, including more time, effort, and eng

Are you sure we can't have additional plugin toolbars for Safari? Maybe have one or two that tell us that we can get paid to surf the Web, and a couple of others that definitely don't show popups?

Fair call on your first point about PWA knowledge level in users. Regarding your users knowledge of what USB-C is: are you sure your user group are not potato's? Most people I know, including the teenage daughters and their friends, al

The inclusion of criminal penalties wasn't accidental, but the wording of what can cause those penalties was not well defined, and that is what the fuss is about.

As a long time user of both operating systems - this doesn't help the discussion. Large numbers of users are brand loyal, so only targeting one OS removes huge swathes of potential customers from your business as a publisher.

Very much this. Apples move here is a very clear attempt to break UX via affecting UI in a negative fashion, and also takes away a key function that is to be expected of some apps (push notifications). This is very obviously and rather tran

The boss can still ask you to come in on Sy day under the new laws. They just cannot badger you about it.
